Abstract

Die Einrichtung ist aus Modulen aufgebaut. Diese enthalten eine Kamera vor welcher ein halbdurchlässiger Spiegel (4) schiefwinklig angeordnet ist, einen Bildschirm (9) für das Aufnahmebild der Kamera, dessen Ebene seitlich verschobenen parallel zur Kamera-Linsenachse angeordnet ist, sodass der halbdurchlässige Spiegel (4) den Bildschirm (9) in Blickrichtung der zu fotografierenden Person abbildet und daher für diese Person einsehbar ist, und einen Selbstauslöser in Form eines am Ort der zu fotografierenden Person befindlichen Schalters (32). Als Besonderheit besteht die Einrichtung aus mindestens zwei passgenau unverrückbar aufeinander aufsetzbaren kastenförmigen Modulen (1,2), wobei das obere (1) auf seiner Frontseite (2) einsehbar im Innern den halbdurchlässigen Spiegel (4) enthält, welcher sich von der oberen Vorderkante (5) des kastenartigen Moduls (1) schiefwinklig zur hinteren Unterkante (6) des kastenartigen Moduls (1) erstreckt. Hinter diesem halbdurchlässigen Spiegel (4) ist die Kamera mit Blickrichtung durch das Zentrum der Moduls (1) nach vorne angeordnet. Auf dem Boden (8) des Moduls (1) ist der Bildschirm (9) mit Bild nach oben gerichtet angeordnet. Das untere Modul (2) weist eine diffus lichtdurchlässige Frontwand (11) auf, und im Innern dieses unteren Moduls (2) ist mindestens ein Blitzlicht-Erzeuger angeordnet. Die Module (1,2) sind auf ihrer Aussenseite elektrisch für Netzstrom, Steuer- und Datenstrom verbindbar, sodass die Bilder vom kamerainternen Speicher aus wahlweise über ihre Multimedia-Schnittstelle (HDMI) direkt in den Bildschirm (9) oder an einen Rechner übermittelbar sind.

The device is made up of modules. These include a camera in front of which a semitransparent mirror (4) is arranged obliquely, a screen (9) for the camera image whose plane is arranged laterally displaced parallel to the camera lens axis, so that the semitransparent mirror (4) the screen (9 ) in the direction of the person to be photographed and therefore can be seen by this person, and a self-timer in the form of a person located at the place of photographing switch (32). As a special feature, the device comprises at least two box-shaped modules (1, 2) which can be placed on one another in a perfectly precise manner, wherein the upper (1) on its front side (2) contains inside the semipermeable mirror (4) which extends from the upper front edge (2). 5) of the box-like module (1) extends obliquely to the rear lower edge (6) of the box-like module (1). Behind this semitransparent mirror (4), the camera is arranged facing forward through the center of the module (1). On the bottom (8) of the module (1), the screen (9) is arranged with an image facing upward. The lower module (2) has a diffusely transparent front wall (11), and inside this lower module (2) at least one flashlight generator is arranged. The modules (1,2) are electrically connectable on their outside for mains power, control and data stream, so that the images from the camera's internal memory either via their multimedia interface (HDMI) directly into the screen (9) or to a computer can be transmitted ,
